LEBANON

After years of satellite and shortwave broadcasting into the North Africa/Middle East Region, HCJB World Radio recently had the opportunity to show God’s love through its healthcare ministry, responding to the aftermath of the war between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon. An HCJB World Radio medical team of six women found serious medical and spiritual needs in Lebanon when there for two weeks to help alleviate the widespread suffering. In the short medical response trip, the team saw approximately five hundred people. HCJB World Radio responded to the need of a partner organization on the ground that asked for non-North America, female doctors. One of the Ecuadorian physicians said, Ì¢‰âÒWe believe this trip planted a seed to bring people hope. There was a language barrier, but through our behavior, our care, our medical attention, the people saw us and the hope we brought.Ì¢‰âÂå Another doctor added, Ì¢‰âÒWith each person we gave medical attention, we prayed for them. Nobody rejected that. They accepted us. They were very open with us, to the point where some of them said to us, Ì¢‰âÂèÏthank you for bringing the light’ in their own language.Ì¢‰âÂå (HCJB World Radio)
